who lived in Indiana. Listings provide site name and URL (plus other info we feel might

This website offers an impressive links

In 1976, the Indiana Department of Commerces Department of
Agriculture began this program that recognizes Indiana farms that have been in the same
family for 100 years or more. To date, 3,427 farms have been certified as Hoosier
Homesteads and 861 farms have been recognized as having been in the possession of one
Indiana family for 150 years or more. Once a farm is recognized as a Hoosier Homestead,
information of historical value on farms accepted into this program is deposited in the
Indiana State Archives.

This website provides information about the collections of the Allen County
Public Library, which has an excellent genealogy collection with a nationwide scope. You
